Default Problem with netscape?

Hi, all,

I've got a strange problem with a template I'm playing with.

You can get the template at http://www.smartechhomes.com/templates.

The problem is strange. It looks OK in IE . However, in Netscape 7.1
the botton two rows are larger than they should be. This is the bottom
bar going across and the row immediately above it (with the rounded
corners).

I'll be darned if I can figure out what's going on here. The next to
last row should be 31px high, and the last one 19px high. But in
Netscape they're larger than that. I have screenshots of both at:

BTW - before you rag on me for all the tables - this is my starting
point. The original template was all tables; I've cleaned up the code a
little bit but have a LONG ways to go. Eventually I'd like to do it in
CSS, but I've had even more trouble getting it to work that way. I'm
going to get this working right, then convert it (any suggestions are
definitely welcome!).

BTW - if I'm a little slow getting back here, I'm off to Orlando, Fl.
tomorrow, where it's 80 degrees (that's 26 to our more intelligent
friends :-) ) But I'll be checking in here when I can.

TIA.

If you're going to use a bunch of tables at least put them in proper frames.

No it doesn't. Make your font a bit larger or make the viewport narowwer so
that almost invisible copyright notice wraps. The graphics fall apart.

I was commenting on how this problem with the font size breaking your
page was a "little thing".

As content is king, and expressing the content is primarily done
through text, and the text must be readable to all users, a design
which allows resizing of the text is the most absolute biggest thing.

Because if you're stupid, you wear a parka.
